Kanyakumari is located nearer to the equator than Kashmir. The equator receives equal day and night throughout the year because it does not tilt in relation to the sun's location. Because of the tilted axis of the Earth, the poles and locations away from the equator lean towards or away from the sun as an orbit is completed, while the equator stays in essentially the same location relative to the sun. So duration of day and night are equal at the equator. But as one moves more and more away from the equator the difference between the duration of day and night increases. Hence difference between the duration of day and night is hardly felt at Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir
